An aspiring Geographic Information Science professional, I have a background in international development and a breadth of experience in data management, visualization, and facilitating data for decision-making. I bring the unique ability of communicating complex data and systems to end-users, enabling evidence driven program management and empowering every day data users to learn and make the most of their information. My professional interests are in climate justice, community-led development, GIS for decision-making, disability rights, and UX design. While my technical skills expand beyond GIS, I see it as a powerful tool for communities and individual users to see themselves and their lived experiences in data. There is a built-in meaning-making that I try to harness in my work to meet the needs of collaborators. My work philosophy centers around making information and interfaces user-friendly, and I am committed to excellence in service and delivery.
